Is there a way to delete an alias once its created?

Some People create an alias kill <something> to stop from getting slayed
and while I was playing around with this..Once I created a kill alias I could not find any way to delete it.. I would have thought that
alias kill "" would delete it but it doesnt apear too.
Is there any way possible to delete one once its created?
so I can try to have my plugin delete it if there is one preventing it.

Does "alias kill kill" work?

no that locks up the client
making the alias recursive.

The best solution is to use "engineclientcommand", ie sending client commands directly to the gamemod as it then never can be "tricked" by the clients...

I assume SourceMod will have it implemented...

PS! An extra benefit is that you can temporary set cheat on during the client command process to get access to a lot of more commands (without any risk of anyone beeing able to use them on the client side)...

You're sure engineclientcommand isn't bypassed with aliasing the command? If it wasn't then aliasing the command would be wholly pointless and never used...

Look into the "cmd" command and wait for GetAlias to be implimented if it's not already and check for aliases named as commands and cvars.

On a side note, is it possible for the server to sniff the output of a client's console from the server? I remember condump; exec condump, but I heard that has been fixed, yet HLG still [supposedly >] works. That'd certainly be helpful in a few instances

??? With engineclientcommand (as in AMXmod) it means "sending" a client command without sending it to the client... I have implemented it by calling the gamemod's ClientCommand directly (or the ConCommand)...

Aliases on the clients are client-side aliases only... ie an alias is "expanded" to it's content recursively until it gets to a non-aliased command or cvar, and if it's not a client side only command/cvar, the command will be sent to the server engine...

thanks..
But is there an actual way to delete one?

hmm vancelorgin is right

alias "kill" "cmd kill"

should work

(Edited : sorry i' m tired holidays are finished lol)

[voogru]

alias cmd "say Can't touch this, na na na na!".

Why do they let you alias over mod & engine commands? That shouldnt be possible.

AFAIK the ClientCommand function sends the command to the client's console command parser. So it is handled the same way a command the client enters into console would be. If you want to bypass the aliases, you can tell the gamedll that the client has issued the command without actually sending it to the client.
